MAGNAT QUANTUM CENTER 816
The Quantum Center 816 loudspeaker visually and acoustically ideally matches the other Quantum 800 models. The loudspeaker is placed
immediately on or under the television set.
HOME CINEMA OPERATION WITH SUBWOOFER
An active subwoofer is recommended for home cinema mode, especially where shelf-top or smaller tower loudspeakers are used as front
speakers. Please refer to the separate operating instructions supplied with this product.
CONNECTING TO AN AV RECEIVER
Figs. 6 and 6 show two different methods of connecting to AV receivers.

MAINTENANCE
The lacquered surface is best cleaned with a mild household cleaner. On no account use furniture polish or similar products on these
surfaces.
HOW TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR VALUABLE SPEAKERS
All MAGNAT loudspeakers are designed and built for optimum sound reproduction with the tone controls in the central position – i.e. with
“linear” amplifier output. Turning up the bass and treble controls too far delivers more power to the woofers and/or tweeters, and at high
volumes this can actually destroy the speaker units!
If the output of your amplifier is significantly higher than the rated power handling capacity of your speakers extremely high volumes can
physically destroy your speakers. This doesn’t actually happen often but you should be aware that it is possible.
Weak amplifiers with low output ratings can actually be more dangerous for your speakers at medium volumes because weak amplifiers
may overload much faster than powerful ones and this causes measurable and audible distortion, which is extremely dangerous to your
loudspeakers.
Always turn the volume down immediately as soon as you hear distortion! If you like listening to loud music make sure that your amplifier
can deliver at least as much power as the speakers’ power-handling rating.
THE SOUND YOU CAN’T HEAR...
Amplifiers, tuners and CD players can all produce inaudible high-frequency signals – and this doesn’t only apply to cheap products. If your
tweeters fail at low or medium volumes you should have a qualified technician check your system components for dangerous inaudible
signals.
